Fall Refreshments

Bright sunshine was the big story today with pleasant temperatures. More of the same can be expected over the weekend with gradually moderating temperatures. Next week, above-normal temperatures return as the weather map begins to take on more of a summerlike appearance once again. There’s no appreciable rain through most of next week. It should be ideal conditions for outside activities.

Forecast Discussion

High pressure is moving into the region and settles over the Southeastern U.S for the weekend promoting full sunshine and pleasant fall-like temperatures.

Weekend weather looks uneventful. A dry cold front passes through late Saturday with little fanfare save for a few clouds. Temperatures remain very pleasant.

Next week, high-pressure ridging aloft takes on a summertime look, and temperatures will respond by returning to above-normal levels. A back-door cold front pushes south on Wednesday with perhaps a few more clouds and maybe a few degrees cooler behind it on Thursday.

In the tropics, the only real game in town is Hurricane Sam. It will continue chugging to the west-northwest. A developing trough along/off the East Coast later next week should protect the U.S. from Sam, fortunately.
